Stock Picks and Trade Ideas for Thursday

My new big pick is (ESLR). Evergreen Solar, Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets solar power products primarily in Europe and the United States. It utilizes its proprietary ‘String Ribbon’ technology process in manufacturing ribbons of crystalline silicon, which are then cut into wafers. These wafers are the primary components of photovoltaic cells that are used to produce solar panels.

The company principally offers solar wafer, a flat piece of crystalline silicon that can be processed and assembled into a solar cell; solar cell, a device made from a silicon wafer that converts sunlight into electricity; and solar panel, an assembly of solar cells that are electrically interconnected and laminated for electric power generation, such as on-grid and off-grid generation. Evergreen sells its products through distributors, systems integrators, and value-added resellers. It has a strategic partnership with Q-Cells AG. The company was founded in 1994 and is headquartered in Marlboro, Massachusetts. Looking at the daily chart of the company, the stock has been consolidating in a flag Bullish pattern, which was broken today. Currently brokers are recommending this stock, with five “strong buys”, eight “buys”, eleven “holds”, one “underperform” and just one “sell”.

Early in the morning, Kaufman Bros. initiated ESLR with a BUY and a price target of $18, citing that Evergreen Solar is well positioned to take advantage of a decline in raw material costs because it makes its own wafers on its own equipment. Over the past 52 weeks, the stock has traded between $7.52 and $18.85. ESLR remains strong and a break above $12.12 would be Bullish. In addition KD line shows positive signal as K line is rising on top over D line and MACD is above the sell line. Honestly, speaking ESLR is one of my favourite stocks in the solar sector. Keep an eye on it !!!!
